It sucks

That’s it, that’s my review it sucked, the ending made me feel like I got ripped off.

I give it 1 out of 10.

Watching Queen Zeus give me popcorn was more entertaining.

I thought it was alright

The concept was way out there thats why I like it.

Maybe you didn't understand what kind of story they were trying to tell.

I don't think it was the story line that Matt didn't understand. What the whole group (Bob, Matt A.J and I ) Didn't get was why all of the advertisements made it out to be a scary movie.

What you go to see a horror movie and you get a movie illustrating the human condition to don't see it as good movie.

Beside we were expecting a movie that was at least a good as Signs and it wasn't.

I thought it was ok, not a movie I will watch again.

Actually i personally think they way they did it was interesting. If you think about it, the trailers on the movie really suggest nothing about it, all they say is there are things in the forest and they live in the vally and the colour red is a bad colour and that the truse or pact has been brocken. They suck you into the story the elders tell there children and so on. The trailer has you think whatever you want to think the movie will be. I personally didn't think it would be a horrow but a thriller. It's all on how you read the trailer. It makes you interested to go see it.

I call it "False Advertising", I some circles that "interesting ploy" can get you sued

As for the movie, it was boring... what I have come to exspect from M. Night Shyamalan?s movies. I understand the story, and it was very well told in its way, it just sucked.

P.S. to tempus, I would not waste bandwidth on this one :P

Horror, Thriller, Whatever.

It was none of those things. It was a story about the human condition. There is nothing thrilling about that. No suspence, no hold your breath moments, no sit on the edge of your seats moments.

Now if there was better advertising people who would enjoy that type of movie would have went to see it.

It wasn't all that great.

Completely off topic, but I too was a victim of false advertising this week. I went into Wendy's and they had a sign that says you can "Double the beef" for an extra $0.99 on a burger. So I order a Triple Patty Classic with double the beef. The lady asks me why I don't just get the 6 patties on 2 burgers. I tell her it's because I'm using the $0.99 thing. She informs me it's $0.99 per extra patty.


I was disappointed. :(

Yeah, I know! I mean, 6 patties for $4.50? That's a burger with my name all over it! Cheap pr1cks.

I have a dream. A dream where a man can buy a burger with 2 lbs. of meat on it for under $5. Join me in my fight against this travesty so that you too can join in the bounty of bovine.

Well, if they doubled it like they advertise it would be 8 patties with me. I think Homer would choke before he had a chance to die of cardiac arrest.
